There are four entries for Manuden [variant spellings] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/TL4926/manuden/] [accessed 8 April 2020] one of which reports a priestbut not a church in it, though there must have been one there. The present polygonal font located at the west end of the south aisle is modern, probably from the 1860s re-building of the medieval church [NB: we have no information on the font of the medieval church here]
